Netflix Fans Furious With Pro-Trump ‘On My Block’ Actress

Netflix‘s On My Block has quickly become one of the platform’s most beloved young adult originals; while it only debuted on the streaming service back in March 16, it’s already been renewed for a second season, pleasing critics and fans alike. The coming-of-age series follows a group of South Central, L.A. high school friends just trying to make it through the hell that is high school, and thanks to a perfect blend of smart storytelling, humor, and authenticity, each episode is a total delight. After finding out that one of the show’s leads appears to be a supporter of Donald Trump, however, many fans are unhappy with On My Block‘s casting.

Tweets alleging that Ronni Hawk, who plays Olivia on the series, supports Trump surfaced at the end of last month, and since then, fans have taken to their own Twitter pages to voice their frustration.

The tweet in which Hawk supports Trump is no longer on her page, but responsesto it, as well as what appears to be a celebratory 2016 Election Day post, remain there. For many fans, the anger comes from the alleged hypocrisy that comes with supporting Trump and starring on a series that directly addresses many of the hardships that immigrants and marginalized groups face. Hawk’s character in particular is affected by this, making the whole thing even more upsetting for fans.
